Husband doesn't care about other relationships. Said not to "cross the line". But unable to be there until retirement... in 20 or more years. Promised kids not getting divorce. Hubbie says it's not an option anyway. Fell in love and have relationship with another man. What to do. How do I deal day to day? (link)

Is the other man OK with you staying with your husband? If he is, it sounds like a convenience thing for him. He may enjoy the benefits without the commitment.
My advice would be not to make your decision based on the other man. Other man or not- you have to decide if you wanna live this way. Do you still love your husband?

My girlfriend shuts off all communication when I confront her with important issues regarding our relationship, like not as much spontaneous openness & sex now as in the beginning ? (link)

I have the same exact issue. I'm to the point of letting her go and have already started seeing another, much younger, I might add, woman and sex with her is great. I really love my girlfriend, but I'm not going to live the rest of my life unfulfilled. I don't ask alot, but a little bit of effort is not too much to ask. For what it's worth.

I've known this woman for many years. In fact, I am and always have been very much in love with her, but since she was happily married I have always kept my stronger feelings to myself.
I say "WAS happily married" because about six months ago, her husband died after a long illness. I have comforted her as a friend, but so far that is all I have done. I want very much to tell her of my deeper feelings, but I'm not sure when it would be appropriate.
Let me stress that I'm not thrilled that her husband died - he was a good person who made her very happy. It's just that I also want to make her very happy, and though it happened in a tragic way the fact is that she's available now (I know that sounds really awful put that bluntly, but it's the truth). I have to admit that it's getting very, very hard to keep a lid on my feelings - especially since when she IS ready to start looking for a new relationship, I want to be sure she looks at me first!
My questions:
How long should I wait?
Would it be appropriate for me to tell her NOW how I feel, but also that I am willing to wait for as long as it takes for her to be ready? (link)

I think it would be weird for you to come out and tell her you love her. I think you tell her what a wonderful person you think she is. And ask her if she's ready to date again, and ask her if she'd consider carrying your friendship to the next level. Tell her you understand that it takes time to get over something such as the death of a spouse and you are willing to give her time if that's what she needs. Then you'll know where she stands.

I play guitar and I really love to sing. I can sing okay to most songs. Some I do better than others. How can I improve my singing?
Thanks (link)

I've played guitar an sang along time. Just like you my singing wasn't that good until the last couple of years. I'm not saying I'm great but I've improved tremendously. I discovered that I was trying to hard. I was trying to sing it like the original artist and was missing my octaves. I am a male a have a low voice. I don't know about your voice, bu you may have a lower or higher voice.
As your singing are you having a hard time reaching notes- either high or low? You have to find your natural voice.
If you find yourself reaching up or reaching down, then you are not in your natural singing octave. Try singing with while asking yourself this question- is this easy or am I struggling? If you are struggling, try to lower it an octave. If that doesn't work raise it an octive. You know your voice better than anyone. Is it higher or lower than you are singing? RElax and concentrate on making it easy, where the words flow out easy. It will take some practice to do this. You have to find yourself, so to speak. You can do it. I had to learn to sing lower because naturally I ty to sing higher than I'm wired for. I think by conscientiously changing octaves, depending on your voice, whether up or down you will find where you wanna be.
I hope this helps. I wish someone would've told me this 20 years ago.
